Dear Canadians ,

I know we’re crooks. I apologize for our thievery, but would you please give us another 10 months or so before an election so you can find out just how bad we are?

You know, I’ve only been here a year and I think I’ve done a pretty good job. But face it, there hasn’t been nearly enough time to reward the folks who donated to my campaign. I need more time.

I’m only asking you this because I respect you so much. Please, please lets wait for this election thing till you’ve forgotten all about how much we stole. Pretty please? I’m asking nicely, and the opposition parties are just sooo mean, with their hidden agendas and all.
